TLDR
The MRS score correlated highly with an independent global rating, and with scores of two other mania rating scales administered concurrently, and also correlated with the number of days of subsequent stay in hospital.Abstract:
An eleven item clinician-administered Mania Rating Scale (MRS) is introduced, and its reliability, validity and sensitivity are examined. There was a high correlation between the scores of two independent clinicians on both the total score (0.93) and the individual item scores (0.66 to 0.92). The MRS score correlated highly with an independent global rating, and with scores of two other mania rating scales administered concurrently. The score also correlated with the number of days of subsequent stay in hospital. It was able to differentiate statistically patients before and after two weeks of treatment and to distinguish levels of severity based on the global rating.read more

The difficult lives of individuals with bipolar disorder: A review of functional outcomes and their implications for treatment.
TL;DR: Functional recovery following a mood episode consistently lags behind symptomatic and syndromal recovery, and longer term functional impairment is only partly explained by the number of manic/hypomanic episodes.

Child mania rating scale: development, reliability, and validity.
TL;DR: The CMRS-P is a promising parent-report scale that can be used in screening for pediatric mania and showed excellent sensitivity and specificity in differentiating children with mania from either healthy controls or children with ADHD.

A rating scale for depression
TL;DR: The present scale has been devised for use only on patients already diagnosed as suffering from affective disorder of depressive type, used for quantifying the results of an interview, and its value depends entirely on the skill of the interviewer in eliciting the necessary information.

TL;DR: Diagnostic criteria for 14 psychiatric illnesses along with the validating evidence for these diagnostic categories comes from workers outside the authors' group as well as from those within; it consists of studies of both outpatients and inpatients, of family studies, and of follow-up studies.
